Advantages
Metal 3D printing using arc-welded wire has many advantages over powder-based metal 3D printing methods:
Greater workplace safety that is easier to implement
Robust processes
Higher deposition or build-up rate
Capable of making larger components
Lower material costs, reduced system costs
Ease of storage
Wider selection of materials
The metal wire has a diameter of between 0.6 mm and 1.8 mm, and can be processed at speeds of up to 20 m/s. Depending on material, we achieve build-up rates of 1.6-4 kg/h, or 600-900 cm³/h.
